Anaesthesia Academy

We strive to promote the professional role of the anesthesiologist and intensivist, maintain the highest standards of practice and patient safety, and foster an exchange of information between our global community.

We achieve this through the many resources, educational tools, research support, and networking opportunities we provide our members, colleagues, and partners –  all of whom are part of the larger anaesthesiology and intensive care community.

Anaesthesia Academy provides continuing education and advances knowledge, leads the way in patient safety, helps to elevate the anaesthesiologist’s practice, and creates valuable and lasting connections with our global community. In doing this, the Anaesthesia Academy contributes to the growth and innovation found in the field of anaesthesiology and intensive care.

Anaesthesia Academy offers regular video-based educational activities made available to the community of students, trainees and professionals.
